Pretty straight forward.
November 19, 2023

A bit confusing about requiring you take a picture with your mobile phone when you already have the requested photo(s) in a personal file on your computer. Otherwise, pretty straight forward. Took a bit of time, more than 10 minutes. However, I would recommend ID.me. A suggestion: When you are told to write down a code for you to remember, just copy the code and paste into an email to yourself. Once received transfer the email to an appropriately named folder for quick reference if the code is needed.

It was fast and easy but it didn't say if this was my federal or state tax or both. The IRS needs to have it all in one place not in 2 places.

Overall general experience
November 19, 2023

I first used id.me over 2 years ago to verify as a veteran. The last 2 months I've used it to identify and verify with the IRS the process seemed at first somewhat confusing and at times very nerve wracking. It was not until I reached out to support and completed a video chat did everything finally come together. Another reason I signed up was to be able to identify as a US citizen for working abroad.

When interacting with this service, my first sign should have came from the site not being able to verify me through my phone number. The second sign was the agent not accepting "to access the IRS website" as being a reason to verify me. Using this service is a requirement to access the IRS website. Lastly, the whole experience was for nothing because I am unable to access the IRS website without going to a IRS office and providing my id to prove my identity (error code 2004). For now, I would suggest paying the IRS by check until they can get rid of this data broker disguised as some kind of benevolent service.

I was pondering weather or not to try the site, because of bad experiences in the past of slow sites and getting angry. ID.me was very easy and fast. I was completely happy with my experience
